Appeal for information launched following series of burglaries at businesses in Bakewell

We are appealing for information after several businesses were targeted by burglars in Bakewell.

The break-ins happened in and around the town centre area overnight between 6pm on Sunday 7 September and 8am on Monday 8 September.

Two businesses were targeted in Station Road, another two in Orme Court and a further business at Lumford Mill.

It is believed the majority of the burglaries took place after dark in the early hours of the morning.

On each occasion the premises had been broken into and some of the businesses had small amounts of cash and other items stolen.

Two men were captured on CCTV breaking into one of the businesses.

Officers have been making extensive enquiries into the series of incidents and we are now appealing for the public’s help as part of our investigation.

We would like to hear from anyone who may have CCTV footage which covers the locations of the burglaries and has not yet spoken to officers.

Information can be passed to us using one of the methods below and please quote incident number 25000528982:
